alternate ending

I always have fun being like “what park is this supposed to be. We don’t have alleys like that. There’s no such subway stop.” It’s aggressively a Movie New York movie

we are unwisely seeing if we can stay up through SCREAM VI: THE ONE WHERE SOMEONE WATCHES JASON TAKES MANHATTAN BECAUSE GET IT?

David Arquette is so good in this. Many an actor has been called upon to do a horror sequel scene where they sit in a chair and describe things from the one they starred in, and his has got to be one of my favorites

of all the novel ideas this comes up with for a SCREAM movie, Kyle Gallner’s character is the one I understand the least. I cannot understand why, if the screenplay needed one more offhand character for slasher film reasons, it’s that one. New developments in small town clichés since I left, I guess

literal lol

I saw a clickbait article that was like “here’s what order to watch the scream movies in” and I can’t stop thinking about it

I really liked this one, him not so much

we’re now watching 5 SCREAM 5 FURIOUS

Failed writer, sociopathic criminal

So much good election news last night I actually missed this

Perhaps the guests could include former enlisted military members pointing out the bullshit. Perhaps folks trapped in countries across the world because the State Dept cannot plan could be asked to call in... Perhaps Iranians who oppose the war could be featured...

when I performed in Carnegie Hall I mostly lip-synced. Whatever suckers, you already paid

And NOW a bunch of online transphobes have noticed she’s being referred to as “she” by various people and institutions, and are bleating about posthumous revisionism and destroying queer history when they never fucking read her own words on it. Just the worst people. Fake allies piss me off

A ★★★★★ review of The Naked Civil Servant (1975) ‘The Naked Civil Servant’ is based on Quentin Crisp’s book about a chunk of her life, made for British TV with enough frankness that over here in America PBS cut out a few words. Born the son of a sol...

when I wrote this I looked up Crisp and found she’d come out as a trans woman in her final memoir, which I haven’t read. Read the relevant excerpts, thought about how to integrate this into how I understood her and the film, and did so

An excerpt of printed instructions: “WRAP IN FOIL, PLACE ON BAKING SHEET AND BACK IN THE OVEN; CONTINUE TO BAKE FOR 15 -20 MINUTES LONGER OR UNTIL CENTER IS HOT (165°F), AND TORTILLA IS CRISP AND GOLDEN AROUND THE EDGES.”

A still of YouTuber HBomberguy, yelling a Ben Shapiro fact-check through a hole he’s axed into a wall.

JUST ONE SMALL PROBLEM, TRADER JOE: WHO’S SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO SEE THROUGH THE FOIL? FUCKING SUPERMAN?

I love telling people like this that we’re not in court and they’re not actually entitled to an argument

accidentally dressed like Christmas

It’s beautiful, but sped-up cranes always seem to be thinking “now where did I park”

Of this there is no doubt

It’s possible no one else in the state was Platner without the tattoo, but I have trouble imagining Schumer calling anyone not already in his contacts

He loves this one and my feelings are cooler, but it definitely grows on you. That cinematography never will, though. What were they thinking

now we’re on SCREAM 4 *dresses for ironic party as “knife-slashing sound”*

I feel semi-obligated because Chuck Schumer jumped in and I’m partly responsible for his continued employment. And because my feelings seem more mixed than average around here

If they were actually trying to make “hey so what’s with this accidental-Nazi thing” feel irrelevant they couldn’t be doing much better, I think. Leadership with a sense of fairness would find a challenger minus that who otherwise resembles him on policy. Instead Maine gets this petty shit

I’ve got some concerns about Platner, and also have a party whose leadership is so unobservant they’re trying to block him with a 78-yo centrist whose approval ratings are underwater with her constituents, who are these same voters

I just feel lucky I don’t have to vote in Maine.

mandatory no-sleep marathon of “It’s Always Sunny” episodes for any comedian who trots this one out again, that’s what I say
